Nitric acid and calcium hydroxide react to form calcium nitrate and water.

The molecular equation is as follows:

2HNO3 (aq) + Ca(OH)2 (aq)  = Ca(NO3)2 (aq) + 2H2O (l)

So the formula of calcium nitrate, the salt formed in this reaction is Ca(NO3)2 .

Water here seem to be the only real product. It is formed from the OH+  of the hydroxide and the H+ of the acid which combine to form two water molecules.

Calcium and Nitrate ions remain unchanged before and after the reaction and are thus known as spectator ions.

Answer:

(NH4)2CO3(s) → 2 NH3(g) + CO2(g) + H2O(g)

Explanation:

The balanced equation can be written when we know the chemical formula of each reactants and products of the reaction.

Ammonium carbonate = (NH4)2CO3(s)

Ammonia = NH3(g)

carbondioxide = CO2(g)

water = H2O(g)

The ammonium carbonate was decomposed in the reaction , so ,

(NH4)2CO3(s) → NH3(g) + CO2(g) + H2O(g)

The reactant is on the left side while the product is on the right side. Let us balance the equation to make sure every atom of element is same number on both sides of the equation.

(NH4)2CO3(s) → 2 NH3(g) + CO2(g) + H2O(g)
